An ideal opportunity to acquire a large modern traditional
2-storey villa standing in its own grounds in the South of France. Complete with
separate ground floor 3 bedroom apartment, ideal for holiday season rental
income or as a granny annex.

The house was constructed in 1979 and has been the subject of an
extensive renovation between 2000/2010. Full double-glazing was added in 2006.
The property is finished with a pebble; crepi exterior with a pan tiled roof.

The present owners live on the 1st floor and currently let out
the completely separate ground floor apartment as either holiday accommodation
or B&B.

The Villa stands in a beautiful matured garden with automatic
watering. There are shrubs, roses, fruit trees, apricots, peaches, cherries,
plums, and vines with red & white grapes. There is also a Mediterranean garden
with semi-tropical plants. An antique vineyard pump stands on a small paved area
with an electric power point. A 5m above ground octagonal pool with a changing,
shower and toilet room adjacent. There is also a small chalet, which can be used
for workshop and storage. Next to the pool there is a Pergola with wisteria and
other climbing plants to give welcome shade from the sun All this stands on a
large paved patio.

The villa and grounds are entirely surrounded by a 2-m high
privacy wall with a locking entrance gate. There is a large paved courtyard
(beautiful interlocking paved cobbles) with more than adequate parking for three
or more vehicles.
